books on my floor

Speaking of books, I’ve been on a reading kick and a library kick. I requested the next Outlander book, all the Jodi Picoult books I haven’t read ( I think 4), Cocktails for Three, The Kite Runner (Chi O alum book for Aug), Thousand Splendid Suns (nestie book for Sept), Lipstick Jungle (I want to read before the series returns), oh and The Virgin’s Lover (Phillippa Gregory’s book on Elizabeth). That said, if you don’t see or hear from me for a little while, it’s because I’m buried in books and trying my darnest to read my way out!!!

home (for now)

We’re back home for a week or so. Two weekends ago I went up to VA to hang out with my parents. I crashed a birthday group dinner with like 12 of my mom’s friends. It was a salad food theme which was so yummy. Lots of wine was enjoyed and it was so fun!
We left Friday for a long weekend in OIB. There’s almost nothing better to me than laying on the beach in the late afternoon with a good book and a cold beer. We went out in the intercoastal Sunday after early beach church on my cousin’s boat. It was so great to be on a boat again~ it’d been a while. She’s talking about selling it, but I hope we can go out on it again before she does.
I was able to finish the second Outlander book (Dragonfly in Amber) and started Jodi Picoult’s Harvesting the Heart while we were down there. I checked out Voyager (the third Outlander book) and hope to start it this weekend. I’m hooked!
